Plastic Orange Webley Oil Container

[Abasmajor]

Even the later Webley accessory prices seem to be buoyant at the moment as I noted one of the little plastic orange oil containers has just sold for £60 at internet auction with 23 bids.

That is a very welcome surprise as I have several.
I wouldn't have expected it to sell for even half that price.

Not a pleasant surprise for me. I could do with one to go in my Hawk box.

Not a pleasant surprise for me too, it is the only thing I require to make my Scorpion pistol perfect

I don't know if the small BSA clear plastic oil bottle as supplied with the Scorpion pistol would command a similar price, as the same type oil bottle was supplied with numerous BSA rifles, but who knows.
It wouldn't surprise me if a few more of the orange Webley oil bottles now appeared on Eb@y, and if so, it will be interesting to see what they make.

l was surprised as they usualy go for around £30

and I thought I was sad, yes love the old Webleys but £60 for a plastic oil bottle that cost pence to make I just cant see that myself, but each to his or her own I suppose.

Hi,

As always, it's a supply and demand thing which can sometimes throw-up what seem to be silly prices. If you are an addicted collector however and can afford it, you will probably pay what it takes to fill the glaring gap in your collection.

I always believe things are worth what somebody is prepared to pay and to them anyway, will be worth every penny.
